And BLAM obliges us with a typical try scored in the corner

@taniwharugby said in Hurricanes v Lions:

@shadowtrooper he's out for JUne series isnt he?

Less of an issue as we have TKB for the bench.

Wait.

Ah fuck!

Gee Lam made that look easy.

What a kick!

@taniwharugby well that's pretty shite...

@shadowtrooper maybe there's another Barrett brother who can play 9?

Great try, awesome kick then mushroom head decides to give away a stupid penalty. Coach killer

@nepia Maybe they're finally going to try Dmac at halfback.

@taniwharugby Yeah, lol that would be good - if only! How quick is the production line....can we get a clone started

As he gets up he has that retarded face too . Deliberately lay on the wrong side for no reason.

This place would melt down if he was late to just one ruck ...

Probably better than having a scrumhalf who doesn't look before passing.

Lam showing all the skills.

Hat trick woot

Lam in again.

Even Fatty seems to be playing himself back into form.

And....wait for it...BLAM!

How bad are the Lions compared to last year!

Lam is a fucking machine

That is a magnificent team try. Contender for try of the year IMO.

man my stream is slow AF....Lam just scored.

They lost to the Blues. At Ellis Park. Says it all.

So it's ok to grab and lift the half back, FFS

Extremely poor work from the Canes there. Christie would do well to clear the ball instead of waving arms and complaining, the little shit

Lam starting to look every bit like a test 11

Is it surprising that the opposition openside is having a whale of a game and really visible...

Julian with more turnovers than his brother.

Unkind bounce prevents Lam from getting another. I can't see how the selectors can leave him out against France.

Reiko Ioane?

@tordah he's obviously been watching some of Peter Stringers old games

Idiot Hurricanes should have taken the lineout there instead of the scrum, they're getting owned for a third time in a row. Stupid

Currently 2nd 5/8 & centre playing for the Blues. So that's him shot.

I don't think that rules him out from AB contention ... there has been a blanket ban, yet.

Massive knock on by the lions, man in front tries to pick it up, man on ground pulls it back in. Ignored by Berry.

Genuine question. What are the actual scrum rules these days. I've buried my head trying to keep up as scrum refereeing annoyed me so much.

You get popped and are back-pedalling but stay square, and ball comes out through your no.8 channel. That's a penalty?

I edited my post. But there will be after they end the winning streak against Australian opposition.

I'm moving to the U20s game .. Canes have this in the bag.

Lions can't run and pass, canes can't ruck and scrum

is this Lam's 2nd hat trick for the season?!

Nah the other was four

Canes backs being totally let down by a forward pack unable to do their core roles. Prediction Knock on by lions, means they get a line out at 5m

Oh and a ref happy with lions being metres offside

@rancid-schnitzel said in Hurricanes v Lions:

RR isn't that good is he? No way he should be an AB.

I think Hansen will select Codie Taylor, Nathan Harris and Liam Coltman for the June series. I can't see RR making the squad as he is far from his 2017 form.
Andrew Makalio was impressive against the Rebels. He had been fantastic for Ta$man in the Mitre 10 Cup so it is no surprise for me. It's certainly too early for him but I can imagine him as a possible bolter for the EOYT.
